roving70,

Did you buy the Dahon Magnetix frame coupling system?

Dahon Bikes USA - Magnetix: Wheel Magnets

Looks like you did. I have been wondering what that "extra" hole in the left rear dropout is for? Now I see that you have figured it out already. Looks like it is basically a bolt-on solution. $8.00 direct from Dahonbikes.com.

Do the magnets work well at keeping the frame together? Is there a reason there is so much space between the fork and rear stays when closed (picture #3 )?
